Sodium Borosilicate Market to Expand with Significant CAGR During 2024
Sodium borosilicate is a glass material consisting of sodium, silica, and boron trioxide and is commonly used as laboratory glassware. Sodium borosilicate is resistant to thermal shock and has high melting point. The boric oxide content in sodium borosilicate affects the glass properties in a particular way. The density of sodium borosilicate is less due to the lower atomic mass of the boron atom. Sodium borosilicate finds application in the glass industry, electronics, optics, and cookware due to its significant mechanical, thermal, electrical, optical, chemical, and viscous properties.
